Lyrics

My name is shamil
Ibn allah
I was raised up my momma
All those Years without my father
I was learning through
Quran
Peacefully unbothered
Till I ran into a problem
That the pages couldn't stop
But I was calling out to god
Praying for protection
Or some divine intervention
While they kicking off my ribs
I seen em all before I thought
Maybe there's a reason why
Maybe god care at all
Maybe we're just meant to die
Maybe I should just forget it all
I put pride off to the side
And all the ego in me died
I started looking at my life
And wanted more than just
Survive
Mommas working all the time
And all my sisters do Is cry
But I couldn't act like I was
Done I gotta stand up tall
To thrive
And make it out the mud
You know I'm cleaning out the gutter
Bread and butter
Gotta be the one to make it better
When the summer come
I'm going up another level
Put that on baby brother
back against the wall
I had to do it all
Applying pressure
Dividing dollars in bags
My pockets on six flags
I greatful and still blessed
I'm changing the image
These bitches are big mad
I know that is been sad
But something's are needed
I came out here freezing
Numb to all the pain
I'm indifferent
Knew that I would get there with
Patience
What's a sinner to a saint
But a witness
Knew that I was made for
The distance
Pushing myself upping the
Limit
It's easier to ask for forgiveness
Couldn't tell you shit was easy
But we got it done
I was flipping bookie birkin bags
In class for 80 sum
Always tryna plot a paper route
I knew a day would come
When I would have to figure out my life
And how building funds
So
I packed up all my shit
And Left home out at 21
Remember back
My nephews crying tears
But I couldn't show em none
nieces holding on to me
And locking doors so I didn't
Try to leave
They seem to many father figures
Walk away to be at peace
No relief unless I get them
What they need
A way to see
That life is bigger than
It seems
And every dream is like a seed
That if you watering to grow
Then It gets big enough to feed and
Work for Everyone you love
And then my soul can be at peace
Numb to all the pain
I'm indifferent
Knew that I would get there with
Patience
What's a sinner to a saint
But a witness
Knew that I was made for
The distance
Pushing myself upping the
Limit
It's easier to ask for forgiveness
Hold on
Keep going
Don't stop
Stay focused
